According to the prosecution, on the day of incident which took place on 19 January 2021, the co-accused in the present crime, initially assaulted the deceased and his family members as some dispute arose between them on account of some rash driving. It is alleged that when the deceased and his family members were going to the police station to lodge the report in relation to the said incident, the present applicant along with other co-accused accosted them and assaulted them by koyta and sticks.

I have heard the learned counsel appearing for the applicant, the learned APP for the respondent / State and the learned counsel for the intervener.

The learned counsel for the applicant submits that the only allegation against the present applicant is of outraging the modesty of the complainant i.e., mother of the deceased. It is submitted that no overt-act is attributed to the present applicant in alleged assault.

The applicant was part of said unlawful assembly. Considering the nature of ofence, I am not inclined to release the applicant on anticipatory bail.
